I picked these up on eBay recently. They arrived from Hong Kong
in just over a week.

Unfortunately, there are a couple key problems.

1. The screw and plastic washer is missing from one of them. In fact, the hole isn't even drilled out all the way. http://www.ecommerceconfidential.com/Clear/Missing-Hardware.jpg
2. The sockets are cheap, the bulbs barely stay in. http://www.ecommerceconfidential.com/Clear/Sockets-2.jpg
3. The sockets don't match the plug on my 88 560 SEL http://www.ecommerceconfidential.com/Clear/Sockets-1.jpg

I'd just use the original sockets but they use a two-slot configuration
and the new fixture uses three.

I've written the company and haven't heard back yet (it's only been a
few hours). These only cost me $10 plus $18 shipping.

Are the ones selling in catalogs like Performance for $72 glass or are they
plastic, too?

The good news is this is, ordinarily, a very simple install. This is a swap that
can be done in ten minutes or less without using tools.
